When I was in Copenhagen this summer, a local recommended I stop in a Danish brand\u2019s store to see some cool local fashion. Founded by Ditte and Nicolaj Reffstrup, GANNI combines Scandi minimalism with maximalist prints, cuts and layered styling. As my new friend said, \u201cIf you look up \u2018Copenhagen girls\u2019 on social media, you\u2019ll see the coolest styles,\u201d such as printed dresses over T-shirts and other layered looks.<\/p>\n

It seems that every first-rate city around the world has its own sense of style and fashion, and a cadre of \u201cit\u201d girls (and guys!) who exemplify that locale\u2019s cutting- edge style. In Atlanta, there\u2019s no more pronounced style epicenter than the Savannah College of Art and Design, better known as SCAD. With that in mind, when it came time to produce our fashion-themed September issue, we knew we wanted to highlight some of the rising student stars coming out of the university\u2019s fashion program. Beyond showcasing those vibrant designs, the cover feature offers tips for shopping more sustainably, showcases three local fashion creators you should have on your radar and includes a chat with SCAD grad, designer and creative director of Carolina Herrera, Wes Gordon. The whole feature is a feast for the eyes!<\/p>\n

Throughout the rest of this issue, we know you\u2019ll enjoy reading about a Midtown hotel that\u2019s perfect for a wellness-focused staycation, how to use herringbone to elevate your home decor and some local spots that make flawless versions of the classic cocktail, the French 75.<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re on the hunt for inspiration to push the envelope on your own personal style or just enjoy seeing what others are wearing, we hope you\u2019ll love this issue.<\/p>\n
